THE BLATANT MOST,
HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HAYNAREET
TRAGEDY.
Inspector ByrHss Says He is The Most Dangerous
Anarchist in Amsriea-BggsSt Coward
Of the LOt-Chambsrlain's
Views on Anarchy.

New YORK, November 14.-Inspector
Byrnes considers John Most the most dan
gerous Anarchist in America.
81 regard Most as responsible for the
Haymarket murders in Chicago" the In
spector says. "He is more to be feared than
all the rest. Take the case of Lingg, for in
stance. He was tweDty-four years old. He
was born in province in Germany, and
some years ago fled to Sweden to escape
the cOnseq uenees Of some act. His sympa-
thizers in Sweden became convinced that
he was giving the government information
and he was forced out of the cOprtry. From
there went TO Chicago, and soon fell under
the spell of MOst's influence. He studied
Most's books on the art OF making dyna-
mite bombs, and to him is given the credit
of manufacturing the bombs thrown at the
Haymarket. MOst's teachings made him a
fanatic. This same Most, though, is the
biggest coward of the whole lot"
1t was an uneysnttul Sunday on the
East Side, 50 far as Anarchist meetings
were concerned. No public display oc-
Cured. The few Anarchists in Williams
burg who threatened on Saturday to paint
that section OF Brooklyn a crimson color
did not stir themselves yesterday to ayenge
the deaths of their Chicago brethren. The
police were on reserve all day, but not
once were their services needed at the
various rendezvous of the men only few
were seen, and they kept unusually quiet.
The Jersey City Anarchists decided by
vote not to hold a mock funeral. The
Newark authorities are taking steps to re-
woke the licenses of all saloons where An
archists are allowed to meet and air their
views.
Curiosity, mingled with uneasiness, was
felt last night in New York over the ap-
pearance of the following mystic inscrip-
tiOn written on sidewalks and buildings in
all parts of the city: der alte Lehman
soil heirathen." This in English means,
Lehman intends to get married." and is
thought by many to be a secret signal or
mot d'Ordre previously agreed upon Tor con-
certed action.

ANARCHIST LEGISLATION.
More Laws Needed-The Sentiment a
Washington.

More Laws Needed-The Sentiment at
Washington.
WASHINGTON, November l4.-There is a
feeling among congressman that the legis-
latures should enact laws which will pun
'ish such conspirators and mOb-makers as
those who swung at Chicago on Friday, and
finally eradicate every vestige of Anarchy
there is in the country. The question OF
law for these characters, they say, remains
in the power of the legislatures, and there
is nothing for congress to do. Everybody
here appears to be pleased with the way
the law was enforced at Chicago, and the
greatest credit is given the representatives
of law and order there. Those who at first
believed that hanging was too severe are
now pretty generally satisfied that the
governor did the best, and that it was alb
solutely necessary TO treat the disease OF
the Anarchists with the most radical rem.
edy; that no patience could be exercised in
deal with such serious disease, and es-
pecially one which was imported and
which threatened to get foothold which
could not be dislodged.

About the Anarchists, but He Knows
More About the Tarid.
New YORK, November 14.-In an inter-
view the Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain
said: "As regards the execution of the An
archists in Chicago did not follow the re-
ports of the trial, but have somehow the
impression that those men were condemn
ed not for the doctrines held or preached,
but for the murder of number OF police
men. l hold very strongly to the doc
trine that the first duty of Democracy is
10 obey their own law. Change it when it
is found wrong but obey it while it is in
force Any diSObedience to law in a
democracy is treason to the commonwealth.
"Of commerce" he went on, Il can
only speak in general terms. There are
still great complaints, but less lack Of
employment than of dIminution in profits.
That is to say, capital has suffered more in
proportion than the working class during
the past few years. The production Of all
the chief artitles of our trade has cOntinu
ously increased, but the prices they are sold
are SO low that the margin Of profits has in
many cases disappeared. This is the case
with iron, coal, cotton and cloth goods,
chemicals and all staples. The manufac-
turer Will keep ON turning out more and
more, so that employment is found pretty
generally for the population, but the manu-
facturers claim that they are doing all this
business for nothing"
Would protective tariff ever be pOssi-
bic in England ?" asked the reporter.
81 do not think the majority of people
would submit to anything that would in
crease the prices of the cheap articles OF
consumption. At the present time our
free trade policy secures to us the greater
portion of the neutral trade, and if we
were to hamper our production by a pro-
tective tariff we should entirely lose this

THR GREAT FIRN OF HATCH & co. GOES
UNDER.
Oaaght on the Wrong Side Of the Market
Evsutful Career Of Wall Street kasuats
Three Times Forced 10 the Wall
Liabilities 8 Million.

NEW YORK, November 14.-Mr. Hatch
was once once president of the Stock Ex-
change, and for a number of years was a
member of the firm of Fisk & Hatch. The
announcement of this failure Vas made at
the Stock Exchange shortly after ten
o'clock. He was caught short of Reading,
and the boom in that stock forced him to
the wall.
The failure OF A. S. Hatch's Company
was a decided surprise to the street, but
created no excitement whatever. A. S.
Hatch was one of the most prominent fig
ures on the Exchange. This is the third
time Mr.. Hatch has heen forced to sus-
pend. The first time was when the Jay
Cooke crash carried down so many Wall
street firm, and the second was when
Grant & Ward suspended. The partner
ship with Harvey Fish, which had
lasted quarter of century,
was dissolved after the second
failure, and A. S. Hatch formed
partnership with his son F. II under
the title of A s. Hatch & Co. The firm
did an immense business and was under
stood to have some very large customers.
For some time back, however, Mr.. Hatch
has been operating on the short side of the
market, and during the recent rise endeav-
ored to depress the market. The stock Of
which he was the heaviest seller was Read
ing, and the share advance which has fol-
lowed the absorption of almost all the
floating stock By great syndicate was too
much for him. The price of this stock a
short while ago was 59s and he is thought to
have sold some thousands of shares around
that price. The stock advanced steadily
until Saturday, when it closed at 67s, and
to-day at the opening il jumped II to 69,
and before the delivery hour had arrived
it crossed 40. 1t was stated on the street
that Mr.. Hatch had received assistance
from other dealers and closed all his con-
tracts to the exchange members. He was
in his Office after the announcement of the
suspension and gave out the following:
IL have made an assignment for the
benefit of my creditors There are no out
standing contracts of the stock exchange
| can give no statement, not even rough
one of the assets and liabilities
On the street it was estimated that the
firms liabilities would amount TO about
81, 900, 900. One OF the prominent features
of A. S. Hatch's character WAS his fondness
for missionary work. lie founded the Gre
morne mission and assisted Jerry McAuley
and other evangellsts in every way posi-
BILE.
When the present firm of A. S. Hatch &
Co. was formed they claimed $3.50, 900 cash
capital, their own money and no debts
The assignee says he thinks the firm will
be able to pay in full.

ISTHMUS CANAL.
Senior ArmerO's Report-The French Com
Pany In a Bad Plight.

senior Armero's Report-The French Com
pany In a Bad Plight.
PANAMA, November 14.-Senor TANGO
Armero, agent of the Colombian Govern
ment ION the Isthmus respecting canal
affairs has recently completed his report
on the canal. Senor Armero commences
by saying: II have carefully travelled
over the whole line, have formed an opin-
ion respecting the work, and am now in
possession Of correct data as to the technical
and practical work OF the canal. The an
nual reports presented by Count De Les
seps to the shareholders are the only Off
cial and reliable documents within the
reach of the public, but whether it be from
the concise terms in which these are
couched, or the fact that they are intended
to inspire the shareholders with
greater confidence, in the canal, they are
partial IN their character and are not so
precise as one would desire. Neither, in
my opinion, do they furnish an exact idea
OF the situation. On the other hand, the
writings Of the pessimists and detractors of
the undertaking are exaggerated in an in
verse sense and worthy OF no credit what
ever" He states that to complete the
canal the enormous sum of $50S, 299, 900
will be required. Senior Armero says that
it is absolutely certain that it will be very
diH~alt to raise this tremendous sum, and
that it is useless to deny that the financial
condition of the company is serious, is in
volved and is alarming. In conclusion he
states that after careful investigation he
believes that the traffic through the canal, !,
should it be completed, would be much
greater than has been estimated.

LONDON, November 1i.-Seventy-dv
men, who were arrested for taking part In
the Trafalgar Square disturbance, yestcr-
day, were arraigued in the Bow Street
Police Court this morning and charged
with rioting.
Many were fined, while others were ssn-
tenced to from four to six month"; inpris-
onment at hard labor.
1t Ia stated that Mrs. Annie Besant who
was with one of the sections desiring 10
enter Trafalgar Square yesterday, made IN
earnest request to be arrested with Burns
and Graham.
The action Of the Government in prevent
ing the monster demonstration ostsnsibly
called to protest against the imprisonment
and harsh treatment Of Mr.. O'Brien viii
bc made the most Of by the Irisk Homs
Rulers and their English allies, and . ffeIh
shower OF denunciatiou viii fall- upoa the
heads OF the Ministry, singly and collec-
lively. II matters not that coudemnau0u
of Mr. O'Brien's treatment had little 10 do
with the affair, which is the fact; the Irish
have through the measures tNkcn by tho
police and military yesterday, been sup
piled with an abundance OF ammunition
for campaign agitation purposes quite ~
effective as though 1t were genuine, - they
assume il is.
Possibly something might have been
said about Mr.. 0'Brien by few Of the
speakers had the meeting been allowed 70
proceed without interference, for Mr..
O'Brien is Just now fruitful subject; but
the real object OF the attempt 10 occupy
Trafalgar Square was merely 70 defy the
prohibitory order Of the authorities, which
il was we'll known would he promulgated
when the call for the meeting WAS issued.
The right Of the authorities 10 prohibit
public meetings in public squares IN
questionable, at the best, but that they
possess the right TO indicate whsrc snch
meetings shall he held and 10 prohibit
them in places not 10 desiguated there
would seem to exist no doubt.
For the foolhardy member for Wcst Ian
AYRSHIRE, Mr.. Graham, little compassion 10
expressed. He was warned before placing
himself at the head Of his followers that
he would receive no consideration from the
police on account of his membership Of tho
representative house, but his obstinacy
prevailed, aud he has broken
head and q hsrd.plank In the polics
station for his pains, not 70 mention
the charge against him Of rioting and re
sisting the police in the discharge OF their
duty, which will probably he pressed 70

PRESS COMMENT.

What Is Said of the Anarchist Execution
and Funeral.
CHICAGO, November 14.-The NerS
says editorially: mo true-hearted Ameri-
can citizen could view the Anarchist pro-
cession. which marched through the streets
OF Chicago yesterday, without emotions Of
a conflicting nature. 1t was display at
once pitiful and reassuring. That some
thing more than five thousand persons,
men, women and children, should avail
themselves of the funeral of five murder
ers, to advertise their sympathy with law
lessness, must be regretted. In the pro-
cession were no flags or banners expressive
of hatred TO American institutions and
American society; but on every breast was
pinned the bloOd-red sign ofreyOlution, and
destruction. To plain common sense 1t
appears inexplicable that ), 900, or 900 or
100 men in the light of day should wear
the crimson ribbon, and march IN the
tail of exc, led murderers. In the place OF
banners, flower pieces, with notices were
borne aloft, the word martyrs being favor
ite among these, yieing with white dove
in its appropriateness. The red nag,
that in obedience 10 the Mayors prohibit
tion. WAS baniShed from the air, rested
upon the coffius of the hanged Eugel and
the self-destroyed Lingg.
Behind the hearSe bearing the body OF
Parsons, followed what must he regarded
az the remnante OF No. 1907, the suspended
K. of l.. Assembly, of which he was a
member. Otherwise there was no indica-
tiou that the great labor organization had
any sympathy with anarchy or mourned
its executed leaders.
Clearing the way, before the procession,
a Grand Army veteran, bearing n cheap
Fourth of July copy of the Stars and
Stripes. emblazoned with the battles in
which he had fought. This was the only
flag displayed along the march Its pres
ence was the freak of = half-crscked brain,
by the Anarchists. They mad
haen prohibited from carrying the red
fIag, and they appealed to the police to
nreyent the veteran from Haunting the
Stars and Strips before the corpses Of their
brethren. For once the police would tain
have Obliged the Anarchists, but they
dared not. The old man shook his flag in
tbe face of Anarchy, and said he had
brsyed death under its folds upon the bat
lie field, and he was prepared to die under
il there.
'0The police started to prevent this atfront
To Anarchy in the presence Of the dead:
But the crowd upon the sidewalk surged
forward, and cheering for the old veteran
an5 an the national emblem, forced the police
back From the Lake street viaduct to
tbs deDot the stars and stripes held its
nIace at the head of the procession, and
Was cheered all along the route. This was
significant Of the temper of the citizens OF
ssIn all the procession as far as the eye
of the spectator could determine, there
WAS not an American lace. This was
s;gni6cant of the composition Of the pro-
eession."

FEDERATED MINERS.
Operators Refuse to Pay the Advance
Their Reasons

Their Reasons.
COLUMBUS, o., November 1.-THE
National Board of Arbitration and COncili.
alton Of Coal Operators and Miners are in
session here to-day with closed doors. They
are considering the demand for au increase
of five cents for mining coal made by the
miners, as promised at the last meeting oil
this association.
1t is understood that the coal operators
of Southern Illinois enter protest to pay
ing the increase, on the ground that they
are competitors with the Ohio, Penusylva-
mia and Northern Illinors operators. As a
rule the operators in Pennsylvania and the
Hooking Valley favor the increase and
openly say they propose to fight no more
strikes, but the people can rest assured
that the consumers will psy double the
cost at the mines with freight added
This means another increase in all the
large cities using coal from the Ohio and
Pennsylvania mines. They have a strong
pool with over one hundred thousand dol
lars in the treasury and any operator vic.
lating the terms of agreement forfeits all
interest in the fund.
At meeting of the joint Arbitration
Board, Of National Federation of Miners
and mine operators, it was decided to pay
five cents advance per ton for mining.
The advance is to date FROM November !,
1888, and continue TO May !, 1sss.
